You can't manually modify the CIB with impunity.  If you're going to do this,
you have to shut down heartbeat completely, modify it, remove the checksum
file, and restart heartbeat.

This isn't the right way to do it, but it will work (even though it sucks).  The
right way is to use cibadmin to replace it or modify it at run time.
